REPORT: Jags expected to sign former Colt Donte Moncrief

After agreeing to bring back Marqise Lee, it appears the Jacksonville Jaguars will be bringing another familiar face into their receiving corps in former AFC South rival and Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Donte Moncrief.

Former Colts' WR Donte Moncrief intends to sign with the Jacksonville Jaguars, per source. Staying in AFC South.

Moncrief, 24, was drafted out of Ole Miss in the third-round (No. 90 overall) by the Colts in the 2014 draft. During his four-year tenure in Indy, he appeared in a total of 53 games while starting in 27. Additionally, he was able to rack up a total of 152 receptions for 1,875 yards and 18 touchdowns during the regular season. His best season occurred in 2015 where he started in 10 games and was able to amass a career-high of 64 receptions for 733 receiving yards and six touchdowns.

Moncrief will now join a receiving corps that includes Lee, Allen Hurns, Keelan Cole and Dede Westbrook atop the depth chart. As we’ve seen with various players in the past, a change of scenery can sometimes bring the best out of a player –– maybe that will be the case for Moncrief, who will be entering his fifth season.

Details of Moncrief’s contract will be revealed as they are released.
